Brachial‐cephalic fistula recovered with drainage for the basilic vein: Case report

We present and discuss the case of a woman aged 69 years in HD in which a brachial‐cephalic fistula with drainage to basilic vein was created, through rotation of the cephalic vein on the forearm level. This kind of access serves to prolong the time spent dialyzing through native fistulae, with their reduced complications and greater cost‐effectiveness.
